Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 i would like to do a fast - as i feel, intuitively, that i need to give my digestive system a break so that it can heal, if possible... because i am already somewhat thin for my height (8 stone at 5 " 8) i would like to know if there is a way to fast without losing a lot of weight --- and whether it is safe to fast without medical supervision? does anyone have any thoughts about this? or alternatively whether there is a clinic that anyone could recommend for fasting etc. etc. thanks!

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 How about a mixture of fruit and vegetable juices? Fresh and organic if you can get that? Not sure which fruits you would have available there but apple carrot & celery seem to be ideal - have you also checked out the grape fast? I have no idea if you have any of those fruit or vegetable where you live Best, Jane - " sriramakrishnasutras " <sriramakrishnasutras Thursday, October 16, 2008 12:57 AM [HealthyIndia] fasting? >i would like to do a fast - as i feel, intuitively, that i need to give my >digestive system a break > so that it can heal, if possible... > > because i am already somewhat thin for my height (8 stone at 5 " 8) i would > like to know if > there is a way to fast without losing a lot of weight --- and whether it > is safe to fast without > medical supervision? does anyone have any thoughts about this? > > or alternatively whether there is a clinic that anyone could recommend for > fasting etc. etc. > > thanks! > > > --- > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 hi jane am based in london so veg juice should be easy enough to find, i hope. although i was wondering about doing a pure water fast for six or seven days........ maybe that is too extreme???? perhaps the veg juice is a good idea to start. thanks elly , " Jane MacRoss " <highfield1 wrote: > > How about a mixture of fruit and vegetable juices?
